Ensure Your Car’s Longevity with Expert Servicing and Maintenance Taking care of your car through regular maintenance is one of the most crucial steps to ensuring it stays reliable, efficient, and safe on the road. At Lancar Automotive in Narre Warren, we understand that your vehicle is more than just a mode of transport – it’s an essential part of your everyday life. That’s why we’re dedicated to providing the very best servicing to keep your car running smoothly and help you avoid unexpected breakdowns. Regular car servicing not only prolongs the life of your vehicle but also helps identify potential issues early, saving you both time and money in the long run.

From checking oil levels and filters to inspecting brakes, tyres, and suspension, our comprehensive services cover every aspect of your car’s health. As a licensed vehicle tester for roadworthy inspections, Lancar Automotive is your trusted partner for staying safe and compliant on the road. Let us keep your car in peak condition year-round. The Advantages of Routine Car Servicing Regular car servicing offers countless benefits that contribute to the longevity, reliability, and efficiency of your vehicle. One of the most significant advantages is the prevention of mechanical damage. By regularly inspecting and maintaining crucial components such as the engine, brakes, and suspension, issues can be identified early before they escalate into costly repairs or unexpected breakdowns. For instance, a simple oil change can prevent engine wear, while ensuring your brake pads are in good condition can save you from potential accidents.

Not only does regular servicing keep your car in optimal condition, but it also saves you time and money in the long run. Ignoring minor issues often leads to more severe damage that is not only expensive to fix but can also leave you stranded, costing you valuable time and causing unnecessary stress. A small coolant leak, for example, may seem insignificant at first but can quickly lead to overheating and severe engine damage if left unchecked. Regular servicing ensures such issues are identified and addressed early, preventing costly repairs down the line. Preventative maintenance ensures your car remains reliable and efficient, reducing the likelihood of inconvenient disruptions to your daily routine.

Additionally, routine servicing improves fuel efficiency by ensuring your engine runs smoothly and components such as tyres are correctly inflated and aligned. This means fewer trips to the petrol station and more money saved over time. Regular checks on filters, exhaust systems, and other key parts also contribute to a smoother, safer driving experience.

Ultimately, investing in regular car servicing at Lancar Automotive in Narre Warren is a proactive way to protect your vehicle and your wallet. With professional care, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your car is well-maintained and ready for the road ahead. Key Checks During a Standard Car Service When you bring your vehicle to Lancar Automotive in Narre Warren for a standard car service, you can trust that every critical aspect of your car’s performance and safety will be thoroughly inspected. Our expert technicians focus on key components to ensure your vehicle operates at its best.

One of the most important checks involves the engine oil and filters. Clean oil is vital for lubricating engine parts, reducing friction, and preventing wear and tear. The oil filter, which traps dirt and debris, is also replaced to maintain optimal engine performance.

Brakes are carefully examined to ensure they’re functioning correctly. We check the brake pads, discs, and fluid levels to confirm that everything is in top condition, as worn brakes can compromise safety. Similarly, tyres are assessed for proper inflation, tread depth, and signs of uneven wear, which can impact handling, fuel efficiency, and safety.

Suspension components, such as shock absorbers and springs, are inspected to ensure a smooth and stable ride. Faulty suspension can lead to discomfort while driving and even cause additional wear on other parts of the car.

The exhaust system is checked for any leaks or damage, as it plays a key role in managing emissions and maintaining engine efficiency. Additionally, other vital systems, including lights, belts, hoses, and fluid levels, are inspected to identify any potential issues early.

At Lancar Automotive, our comprehensive approach to servicing ensures that every part of your car is functioning as it should, giving you confidence on the road. Licensed Vehicle Testing and Comprehensive Services At Lancar Automotive in Narre Warren, we’re proud to be a Licensed Vehicle Tester, providing reliable roadworthy inspections to ensure your car meets safety standards. Whether you need a roadworthy certificate for vehicle registration or peace of mind before selling your car, our team is here to assist.

We also specialise in logbook servicing, adhering to manufacturer specifications to maintain your car’s warranty while ensuring optimal performance.

Let us help you stay safe and confident on the road with our comprehensive services. Seasonal Car Maintenance Tips for Year-Round Safety Seasonal car maintenance is essential for keeping your vehicle running smoothly all year round. During summer, ensure your cooling system is functioning properly to prevent overheating, particularly in the heat of Narre Warren. Check coolant levels and inspect hoses for any signs of cracks or leaks. Tyres should also be reviewed, as hot weather can increase pressure – make sure they’re correctly inflated and in good condition.

In winter, pay close attention to your battery, as colder temperatures can reduce its efficiency. Test it regularly to ensure it holds charge and starts reliably. Defrosters and heaters are critical for visibility and comfort, so confirm they’re operating effectively. Additionally, inspect wiper blades for wear and replace them if necessary to handle heavy rain or frost. Preparing for seasonal changes helps ensure safety and reliability on the road.

Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspections

Properly maintained brakes will save you money and shouldn't need to be repaired, but ignored they may cost you more than money! Maintaining your brakes means not waiting until they need repairs but having them checked on a regular basis to help avoid any unseen or unexpected problems which might impact your ability to brake safely and efficiently should the need arise.  Regular brake maintenance means that you can be confident that your brakes will be working properly when you need them most - in an emergency! When it comes to Brake Maintenance, you should never take a risk. If you're not sure if your brake maintenance is 100% - call a professional like Lancar Automotive without delay. It is important to remember that unusual brake sounds are not only caused by normal wear so any unusual noises anywhere in your car should always be investigated by a qualified professional mechanic. Check your Brake Pads Your brake pads are a key element of your braking system and a part that you your shouldn't disregard. Friction is caused when the brake pads compress against the brake rotors in order for your car to stop. So your brake pads are working really hard, really often. The amount of pressure they need to apply to pull up a moving vehicle is extreme and the friction used to do so generates a lot of heat - which wears down the brake pads. Squealing brakes are a sure sign that your brake pads are worn thin as many pads have a small metal piece set into them that scrapes on the disc when your brake pads are getting worn, causing that high pitch noise. However, you should never wait until you hear noises to get your pads assessed, we advise having your brakes inspected at every service. At Lancar Automotive we offer a free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection with every car service. As part of our Vehicle Inspection we inspect the brake pads for wear and inform you if they call for replacing. We can also recommend the right pad for your local conditions and driving style. Brake Pads can last anywhere between 15,000 to 70,000 km's. This can differ according to a number of causes such as; driving style, local conditions, towing heavy loads. If your brake pads are wearing out prematurely your mechanic might advise using a special heavy duty brake pad more suited to your vehicle. Check you Brake Fluid and Flush regularly Brake fluid provides the pressure needed by the brake pads to stop your car. It also helps prolong the lifespan of your various brake components by helping to prevent corrosion. Most people know that it is imperative to keep the brake fluid level topped up, but did you know that you should also have the entire system flushed regularly to replace old brake fluid and prevent excessive moisture in the fluid? Simply because it looks clean doesn't mean it's actually in good condition. Moisture accumulates in the brake fluid and it's not always noticeable in a visual inspection. Moisture in the fluid increases the chance the fluid will boil, which could result in a loss of braking pressure. A visual inspection is not sufficient to identify excess moisture in your brake fluid, only a professional boiling point test can tell you this. A brake fluid flush can be done as part of a scheduled service - but sometimes we may suggest you need one outside of a regular schedule if we feel it's necessary. We are always happy to discuss the reasons why with you. Lancar Automotive are qualified to perform a wide range of brake services and repairs using quality parts, all covered by our nationwide warranty. Brake Pads Brake Drums Brake Calipers Brake Rotors Brake Hoses/Clips/Springs Wheel Cylinders Wheel Bearings Master Cylinders Brake Flushing At Lancar Automotive we offer a Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and back discs and pads, calipers and cylinders and more. This Vehicle Inspection Report lets you know if there is immediate or future need for repairs to your vehicle allowing you to budget in advance.
